Write product descriptions that rank
+ Most product descriptions kill SEO. This one fixes both.
Good morning, Prompt enthusiast. It's your Prompt Architect here, with a blueprint that'll transform your product description game!
Let me take you back to my early ecom days—I had a sleek new product, a beautiful landing page, and… crickets. I was proud of the copy, but it didn’t rank, didn’t convert, and didn’t sell. Turns out, I was building with bricks but forgetting the foundation—SEO + persuasive structure.
That changed with the prompt I’m sharing today. It helped me rebuild every description using search intent, emotional triggers, and crisp benefits. The results? Higher rankings and a serious uptick in conversions.
If your product pages are gathering dust, this is the prompt that will renovate your sales floor.
Today's we'll covers:
How to blend SEO keywords with emotional benefits in your copy
Why most product descriptions fail to convert—and how to fix them
A prompt that writes like a copywriter and thinks like a search engine

The Problem:
You’ve got a great product, but your description sounds like a user manual.
No emotion, no SEO boost, no reason to click “Add to Cart.”
Without a structured prompt, you're basically throwing bricks without blueprints—building walls that don’t stand out. Generic descriptions = generic results.
It’s the difference between a landing page that sells vs one that just… sits.
HOW ENGINEERED SEO PRODUCT DESCRIPTIONS TRANSFORM YOUR COPY:
Boost your rankings by embedding high-intent keywords naturally
Drive clicks and conversions with emotionally engaging language
Differentiate your offer by weaving in your unique selling points

Now, let's plug this framework into your next prompt...
✨ THE SEO PRODUCT DESCRIPTION GUIDE MEGA-PROMPT
#CONTEXT:
Adopt the role of an expert SEO copywriter with deep knowledge of consumer psychology and digital conversion. You will craft emotionally engaging, benefit-rich, and search-optimized product descriptions that are designed to increase visibility in search engines and drive conversions on ecommerce platforms or landing pages. The language must strike a perfect balance between persuasive copy and keyword optimization, while staying aligned with the target audience’s values and desires. The tone must reflect the brand voice and foster a sense of trust and urgency in the reader.
#GOAL:
You will write a high-converting, SEO-optimized product description that effectively communicates the product’s core benefits, features, emotional appeals, and a compelling reason to take action, all while aligning with specific SEO keywords and brand tone.
#RESPONSE GUIDELINES:
You will follow a structured, step-by-step copywriting formula:
1. **Hook the reader immediately** with an emotionally resonant opening line or pain-point based question that aligns with the audience’s desires or frustrations.
2. **Present the ultimate benefit** the product offers, showing how it transforms the user’s situation or solves a pressing need.
3. **Describe 3–5 product features** in a way that highlights their functional and emotional value. Translate features into clear benefits.
4. **Weave in SEO keywords** naturally into the copy to improve search visibility without compromising the human readability and emotional flow.
5. **Reinforce social proof** (e.g. testimonials, customer count, media mentions) if available to build credibility.
6. **Conclude with a compelling CTA** that includes urgency, scarcity, or transformation. The call-to-action must feel irresistible and clear on the next step.
Example template structure:
* Struggling to [pain point]?
* Imagine if you could [ultimate benefit] without [common frustration]...
* That’s exactly what [product name] helps you do.
* With features like [feature 1], [feature 2], and [feature 3], it’s designed to [result or transformation].
* Join [number] happy customers and see why [product name] is quickly becoming the go-to for [target audience or result].
* Don’t miss out—[CTA with urgency].
#INFORMATION ABOUT ME:
* Product: [WHAT YOU SELL]
* Target audience: [WHO IT’S FOR]
* Product features: [LIST 3–5 FEATURES]
* Keywords: [SEO KEYWORDS]
* Tone: [BRAND VOICE]
#OUTPUT:
Produce a product description between 120–160 words that is:
* Emotionally engaging
* Benefits-led and SEO-optimized
* Flows naturally and follows the copywriting formula
* Ends with a CTA that drives clicks or purchases
